Who cares about HQ when you PL a craft? You want skill ups, not profits.

Ummm yeah... You know there is an optimal time for skillups too right?

Due to some of your previous posts I thought you were a dumbass, due to some other people's posts I was begining to think you were a gil buyer.

Now you're leveling GS, and this post...pretty much solidifies both thoughts I had about you.

I like to PL crafts, the only time I don't care about days is when the synth is a profit and everyone (except maybe you) knows that isn't all too often while leveling.

Hope you got American Express no limit card cause I don't know if a regular card will be able to keep up with you.

At least Thadeus can rest easy, you'll never compete with him.

Anyone who want's to make a profit. Having a high crafting level doesn't make money. Understanding crafting is what makes money.
 
Mkay, Vang, and Meeze.. youre idiots. GFYS. ^^ he asked a question.. which got a bullshit answer from an idiot asshat. SOME PEOPLE PL CRAFTS.
Now show me in my post, you ignorant little man, where I said I was gonna pl anything? Please read my Goldsmithing post. I said, in very plain words, I can't afford to level it high. It is a FINAL GOAL to have a high Goldsmithing.
Please stop.. where did I say it?
......

oh wait. I didnt. You're being presumptuous. Please use more than 15 braincells at a time.. if thats possible.
Just because someone doesn't know when to HQ doesn't mean they are an idiot. Perhaps he had some gil to blow and just wanted to get that shiney number next to his craft. So what? How does this involve HQ? Rather than being an asshole jerkoff you coulda answered him.
And as for Goldsmithing, your mental ineptitude astounds me. Your overzealous idiocy is stuff that legends are made of. Please do not compare my plans with my views on someone else. Thats like you saying "Rdm can solo Avatars" and me saying "MORON! A BLM CANNOT SOLO FENRIR!"
......
no shit you dumb fuck -.- I said "Who cares about HQ when you PL a craft? You want skill ups, not profits."
I did not say what craft, or for who, or for what situation.
when you raise a craft hastily (as someone who does not know when to HQ has obviously done) I'm 18 and I work as a temp I'm sure I could afford HUNDREDS of dollars to level some stupid game craft. OR NOT. childish idiot.. my goldsmithing is something I intend to raise over MANY MANY months.. why rush? I'm not going anywhere any time soon. If it takes TWO YEARS to hit 60 even.. so what? It's a PLEASURABLE thing to do while LFP. Farming sucks, I've done 600+ hours of that and I think I've had enough.. and I dont like to fish.
So, when I get gil on occasion, I will level Gold a bit. Please have real backing to your accusations before you go and make yourself look like the idiots you two are.

The PL'n part was about darklion, thats why it was a PS to vang, he hates PLers in his craft.

It's cute you got all upset about this, and started calling names. But obviously you or your "girlfriend" (is she even a girl this time? http://www.qcdn.org/showthread.php?t=19707 ) know nothing about crafting ( http://www.qcdn.org/showthread.php?t=20012 ). So what are you doing "dropping knowledge" in this board? Stick to asking questions that don't make you look dumb.

There is another thread I want to link so everyone can LOL some more, but I can't find it, and I'm kinda busy.
 
Whatever.. I found it uncalled for that Vang verbally assaulted someone asking a question. I know next to NOTHING about crafting, so I generally ask questions. People like Vang are why people don't ask questions, then you bitch that they are retarded etc etc. Try giving HELPFUL INFORMATION not "lolustupid".. it's simple. All I did was offer up a possible reason as to why he didn't know. I pl'd cooking to 28 LOLOMG. Cost me a whole 50k cause I had all the crystals from leveling. woahmg. I don't pretend to know squat. I just gave a possible reason, a lot ore useful than Vang's response.
 
The guy got what he got because he's lvl 80. Thats like if you were lvl 60 and didnt know what a refresh cycle was...get that?

When you are starting out crafting, of course you know nothing, just like when you start leveling. After a while though you should have it down. There is absolutely no reason to be level 60+ at anything and not know basics about crafting. This question is a basic question someone asks when they start a craft. When looking up what synth to do next you come across info good or bad.

You really shouldn't give help if you don't know what is being talked about. At 28 you can craft pretty much anytime and get skill, things change as you get later in a craft, and (with most crafts) get real expensive per synth. The words that come out of a rookies mouth hold no wait. Thats like me going up to tiger woods and telling him how to hold his golf club cause I beat hot shots golf on ps2.

Its not worth putting yourself on the spot with a dumbass line like the one you used and make yourself look real dumb.

Obviously others have said their part about this. Staying on-topic and answering the question of who exactly cares about HQ, Demonknightx and anyone looking to HQ cares about HQ. That's what the question was. He's looking to HQ a recipe and he's more than 40 levels over it's cap. It's a simple question. Your next sentence is, I dunno, trying to tell people what they want?!?!



I think his question detailed specifically enough what he wanted.
 
See powerlevelling a craft is like powerlevelling a job. You get the level, but you don't learn the skills that you need to make it work.... Being a L75 PLD doesn't make you a good player if you don't know how to hold hate. Being a 100 level crafter doesn't make you a good crafter if you don't know how to make money with it.

And learning what to craft, how to find the ingredients, and when to do the crafting is what makes the big bucks.... You just have to go to Allah and see how many people are complaining about how they can't make money with a 100 craft to see that it isn't just getting the level that matters.

Lol yea thanks... i was gunna respond by saying that but u did it for me =p

but yea.. jeebus i just wanted some advice on what would give me the best chance to HQ, i didnt mean to start a huge argument :(. but yea. the reason i dont know that much about crafting is cuz yea, i had the extra gil, and i really wanted to go into fishing. so i thought hey, before i level fishing, why not level crafts that use the fish so i dont waste them? so my goal was to hit 100 cooking (almost done^^) and 60 alchemy (done^^) so i can get the most out of the fish i catch. Since yes, its true i powerleveled cooking (not so much alchemy tho) (LMAO i just tried to hit tab on alchemy and i hit tab enter... haha it posted my 1/2 finished reply....rofl) and yea, now that i'm getting into the higher portion of cooking i was just curious becuase sooner or later, im gunna want to HQ stuff, and i thought mithkabobs was a good place to start practicing i guess ^^. like i said... didnt mean to start a huge argument.. srry for the trouble ; ;

anyways, thats it. hopefully ppl will stop arguing <_<

No, I'm gonna be grown up about this.
I'm sorry.. I didn't mean to go off.. it's been a hellacious week. But.. I do hope, in all seriousness, someone you know falls ill for you comment against my fiance. That was uncalled for, and despicable. How would you like it if, perchance I knew someone you loved who died recently, and talked about them in a negative way? Thats lower than anything I have ever read on this site. Please, mature some.. I cannot stress how horribly uncalled for that was.
I apologize for derailing the thread. false accusations are not justifyable in any way however, so I did act accordingly.
I also apologize for trying to clear up a problem, which, as usual, I was right about.
Thank you. ^^

You're gonna be grown up about this...then you wish someone I know to fall ill because of what I wrote about your fiance...again you show how much of a dumbass you are.

Your fiance died? If its true, sorry to hear that. If its false...LOL you're really starving for the attention.

You did not clear up a problem, you gave advice on something you admittedly know nothing about, then you got called on it and threw a little fit.

...holy shit look at that, by your definition I took the mature way out of this!!! Go me!!!
 
In my view..if you're PLing a craft, you're levelling a craft....which means you're crafting something a couple levels above you...which means you're not gonna HQ all that often anyways, so meh. =/

More power to the people who manage to HQ while skilling up on stuff...but not all NQs are losses, even..
 
did everyone competely miss the point of that post? he wasnt asking about chances of HQ while skilling, but how he can improve his chances of HQ when crafting somthing below his level.

and Shaidalyn, you're retarded, sorry.
 
I think what Shaidalyn was really trying to respond to was to this :

Vang said:
This is my point.

HOW ARE YOU FUCKING EIGHTY IN A CRAFT AND DO NOT KNOW THE IDEAL TIME TO HQ?????????????????????????????????????????

You people, seriously wtf.

I need some heart medicine...

...after Demonknightx gave information about his craft and level. So the point seems to be "why blow a fuse at someone who's asking for how to HQ if he spent most of his time PLing his craft?"

I feel in most crafts, you learn about ways to make profit on NQs much more than on HQs pre-50. Post 50, you start to look for more ways to profit on HQs from low-level recipes, so usually by 80 skill, you know what HQ'ing entails as you usually have done your research.

But seeing how Demonknightx's craft is cooking, I understand why he might not have cared about HQs by then. Most guides offer dirt-cheap recipes to skill-up on, so one can get their cooking way above 50 without having spent a second thinking about how to get HQ results, prefering to wait until the skill reaches the highest level possible within one's means before starting to profit from their craft.

My opinion? If someone leveled Clothcraft to 80 and you still don't know how to HQ, then yes, it's reasonable to think the guy got his funding in a questionable way. But for Cooking? I'm hardly surprised.
 
I doubt it was Demonknightx only that Vang meant. Theres a lot of PLing crafters that doesnt know crap about what they are doing. They jacking up prices flooding markets undercutting etc. etc. and it fooks the craft colmpletely up. I think demonknightx shouldnt take it to personal

There is more you can do. I'm not posting this from a biased standpoint. I'm going to go out on a limb here.

This game is based on reputation. All you're doing is backing into a corner, as everyone surrounds you. And you lash out, you scratch, claw, and gouge your way out. Trying to just climb over this wall of people that have you cowered into a corner. Stop. Stop fighting, Stop defending yourself.

Let them post. Let them go on. let them bash and smack you. Did they get the upper hand because you didn't get the last post in? Is that the problem? Do you really need the last word? Let it go....Just let it go. It'll do you best to follow this plan in the end.

You can't apologize, and then turn around and try to act like your wrong actions are justifiable.Stop trying to defend yourself. You can't defend yourself if you're wrong. You accept the consequences of yoru actions. Apologizing doesn't work that way. Believe me, I know. I've had to apologize for things far more than I'd like to. I'm really tempermental and tend to make rash decisions.

Quit trying to label this as a bandwagon. Perhaps you're just wrong. Like you said, we're human and we're all wrong. That isn't an apology. Thats an excuse.

Apologize, hang your head low, and know you've done wrong. And when people see you are sincere and mean it, then they will accept this, and probably even try to help you.

If you can't do that, keep on keeping on with your current path. It won't end well for you, that much I can promise. I'm not attacking you. I'm telling you what Alyada already has. Perhaps even with a little time and peer counsuling you can even get forgiveness for your actions. Would that be so bad? To have to admit your wrong? and get forgiveness? It won't happen over night, so don't go thinking it's that easy. If you were really sorry you'd be willing to work for it.
Either the above applies, or, you're really just a dumb bitch.
